Who can forget Barry White? I’m sure his songs have touched everyone at some time or other. I know he has touched me. I grew up with Barry White. Barry’s music is so soulful, and truly says something.

“At Your Best (You Are Love)”
Age Ain’t Nothing But A Number
Blackground/Jive Records
Aaliyah’s follow up to “Back and Forth”, “At Your Best (You Are Love)”, takes a more laid back, and chilled-out yet funky and romantic approach in both the song and the video itself. She’s got …

i have nothing but the utmost respect for everything that Ozzy Osbourne has done for the world of rock & heavy metal over the years. But being the godfather of metal doesn’t actually mean that you aren’t judged on each individual thing you do.
For example, i think his …

You Got Me Floatin’ is a track by The Jimi Hendrix Experience which appears on Axis: Bold As Love. The track starts off with some backwards guitar effects to give a psychedelic tone to the song, but overall I’d say that this is more of just a rock driven …

House Of The Risin’ Sun is a traditional song which is performed by Bob Dylan on his self-titled debut record. I’m sure that just about everyone has heard some version of this song, whether it be the original or just a cover of it from some artist as it’s …

This album continues where the last one left off. The Coral continue their slightly tinny sounding, modern pastiche of sixties music, which works a treat. I loved it from the first song ‘In the Forest’, right through to the last, every songs a winner. Slightly darker …

I used to sing with the band. Well, I can say that I really enjoyed every moment that I am in front of so many people and it gives me so much confidence whenever people gave me a warm applause.
I sing a variety of songs, from 50’s …

Welcome angelic voice to my melancholy ears. Any Gothic Metal or Symphonic Metal fan is usually in search for this exact concoction. The song, Chasing the Dragon by Epica starts about being one of the sweetest serenades or lullabies ever produced by Epica’s …

“The Best Of The Suicide Sessions”
“Suicide Sessions”- an album only for those who can handle sheer rawness that feels like needles piercing your ears, extremely offensive and disturbing lyrics, and the most unlistenable album GG has ever put out. Through the distortion and static is a set of recordings …

My Apocalypse, the final song on Death Magnetic, should certainly remind listeners of Metallica used to close their records with songs like Damage, Inc. and Dyers Eve, or at least that’s what this song certainly does for me. For those of you who have heard the two aforementioned songs …

KISS - DYNASTY
The last ‘big’ KISS album and the beginning of the end for the band. (Peter Criss doesn’t even play drums here…anton Fig fills in although he never received credit)

Oasis is a band that occupies a very special place in my heart. Their 1995 album, What’s the Story, Morning Glory was basically the first CD we ever had in our household, because back 1995 most people still listened to LPs, and so did we. That album is very …

Queen, quite simply a legendary band, with the best entertainer of all time fronting the band. An absolute classic that is always played when a sports team wins a trophy in the U.K, is We Are The Champions.
What I love about this song is the very start. The way …

I for the life of me do not understand why in the world you need 6 people to carry one song. That said, I actually find myself enjoying the vocals of Danity Kane. I heard ‘Damaged’ on the radio and realized it’s not like all the other R&B drivel …

Lana Del Rey is undoubtedly one of the most polarizing figures in modern music. Ever since breaking it big with “Video Games”, she has faced a decidedly lukewarm reception. One must doubt whether it’s her music or just her over-all aesthetic that her detractors have an issue with. Upon …

I recently have been listening to the song Kashmir by Led Zeppelin. The song off their album Physical Graffiti, is one of the best on the album or even one of their best period. The song is known for its time length clocking in about eight minutes. The …

As one of the earliest songs from Circa Survive, “Handshakes at Sunrise” remains one of my favorites, if only for its sentimental value. Displaying a sound that would become standard for the band, you get a feel for where they started, and how the sound of their early music …

Money Maker by Ludacris with Pharrell is a nice song that I like listening to and dancing to. It has a good beat to the song and I just love dancing to the song. To most this song is a dirty song and it is but it also can …

Does anyone remember when Lil Kim had all her real parts? The Lil Kim that I used to listen to had some nasty lyrics that were quite catchy. The memories I have of Lil Kim when she was with Junior Mafia and Biggie, was the female rapper …

An album that really doesnt stand out in the David Lee Roth era of Van Halen is the album Van Halen 2. I really like this album because it still had the classic Van Halen tone with more of a punchy sound to it. Although no Van Halen album …
